- Hawaii residents following county and state decisions
- Worth noticing
- Its 17-body list excludes several named commissions and boards, with the coverage gap disclosed rather than hidden.
Field notes
The guide distinguishes its current coverage from a longer list of untracked bodies, including county water-supply boards and police and liquor commissions. It also explains why statewide government has unusual weight in Hawaii: the site describes one statewide Department of Education and no independent school districts. The extract presents this as an evolving guide, not a complete inventory.
